The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize new energetic polycyclic "cage" compounds.
As part of a program involved in the synthesis of new polynitropolycyclic compounds, 2,6-dinitro-5-methoxy-
7-carbomethoxypentacyclo[5. 3 .0 . 0* • * . CP • i ° . 0* •8]decane has been synthesized. This is a model system which can be used to study (1) the effect of nitro substitution on the photolability of carbon-carbon double bonds and (2) to develop methods for avoiding Haller-Bauer cleavage in cage /3-keto esters when synthesizing polynitro-substituted cage compounds.
